It's the big ten for the Ye Olde Melee Tournament! I promised something a little different for this tounament, so this time, in honor of the anniversary, we're gonna do things a tiny bit different and see how it goes. Here's what we'll do: recently in the Avril Lavigne thread in Debate, N-Man compiled a list of all the active members in TendoCity. He decided on the 31 most active members, so they will all be competing in a grand 32 man tournament (I added Elly Vierge to round it off). All 32 will be fighting, and if you want your character to have a certain name or character, tell me now. Otherwise, I will pick a name and a random character on your behalf. All items will be on, and the tournament will be held in Final Destination. As usual, all of us will be played by Level 9 computer players. Well then, now you know how it's gonna work, lets get started. The tournament will be held on Monday, April 28. Register your info by then, or it's up to me. If your names not on the list, you're out of luck (as if it matters anyhow :D)

Quote:Nintendo has revealed details and images of Mario Kart on the GameCube, which will be called Mario Kart: Double Dash.

The images reveal 16 characters riding in pairs on their karts. One character drives, and the other throws weapons. Characters include Mario, Luigi, Peach, Baby Mario, Baby Luigi, Yoshi, Birdo, Wario, Waluigi, Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Bowser, Bowser Jr., Koopa, and Paratroopa.

We'll have some more details shortly. In the meantime, <a href="http://www.nintendo.com/e32k3/mariokart_feat.html ">eyeball</a> what NOA has revealed.

Update: Famitsu says the game WILL work with a LAN adapter; 8 players can play!(with two GameCubes and two copies of the game)

And a rough translation from where this scan was taken.

Quote:point 1- new colors!
point 2- 2 player mode. nature of playmode is still unknown. is it a 2P versus mode?

reporter's view - first pikmin had a tie in with the "strawberry no uta" in the Commercial (and a very successful one too!). reporter knows/thinks pikmin 2 will have a huge tie in as well.

other stuff:

- new Luujii/Ruujii character joins Olimario.
- more items
- over 60 types of creatures
- random events on the field
- underground dungeons
- no time limit system

I just got it today, despite the warnings of a few co-workers.

I came to the decision that my co-workers are fucking lunatics because this is the best animated film I've seen since Metropolis. I loved how you got the feeling that in the two hours I spent watching this movie I felt like I experienced an entire season of a series. It was loaded with depth and character, it was funny and depressing. It was simply a work of art. Even the English dubbing was superb.

It's just incredible. You all need to see this... immediately.

Funny note: The girl who voices Chihiro is the girl in the videotape in "The Ring". :)

Cool. Uh, I guess I'll need a dozen posts... to attach all the pictures... :(

If this is true...

Huh. Apparently, Treasure is making the game. That gives me hope for it.

*cough*
